ProcessOur uniquely tailored process reflects our philosophy of providing a sustained flow of soundly considered and
consistent information to the market, whilst maintaining and supporting contact with shareholders, prospective
shareholders and advisors. We believe that we are uniquely able to communicate to the investment community
in their language. The key to getting onto radar screens, boosting liquidity and ultimately enhancing the
Companys share price is to deliver a consistent, reasonable and well argued message to the market. That
message should articulate the growth profile of the business, its investment proposition, customer value
proposition and competitive advantages.
RoadshowsOrganising presentations and briefings, seminars, site visits, one-on-onemeetings, conference calls and webcasts with the investment
community is critical to the Investor Relations process. These will typically be
scheduled after profit releases and other key announcements. Other events
may also be considered where a deeper insight into the companys
operations and strategies may be presented. Ongoing and maintaining
communications with analysts, advisers and the business media
is a part of this process.

relations services, has been providing research and analytical
services for a number of years as badged research under thewell known and respected brand, The Bourse Factor Research.

What can we do for Small Caps?
Too often unrealistic promises are made by PR and communications companiesin the listed company space with outcomes not in line with expectations. Quite
simply, not many groups reallyunderstand the workings of the sharemarket and
how to deliver results in such a highly complex and often idiosyncratic
marketplace. In our experience, there is frequently a serious disconnect
between the investment community and the company. All too often, the
investment community does not understand the value proposition, purpose,
positioning and growth strategies of the company. We can help the company
provide clearly articulated, strategically sound presentations of its operations,
growth prospects and inherent value across the range of audiences, includingstockbrokers and analysts, advisors, investors, the mining industry, property
industry, the business community and the media.

The Bourse Research Advisory Panel
Bourse Communications, as part of its overall suite of investor relations services, has beenproviding research and analytical services for a number of years as badged research under the
well known and respected brand, The Bourse Factor Research.The Bourse Factor Research has built a significant reputation in assisting many micro, small,medium and emerging companies to get onto the radar with brokers, analysts and fund
managers. Investors in 2010 and beyond are more likely to be looking for companies in this space
because of the outstanding value proposition, but may not be able to obtain meaningful and
comprehensive information. Generally, if a company has not yet reached a sufficient size to
enable broader sharebroker coverage it is very difficult to obtain this information in order to make
informed investment decisions.
Until a company has reached a market capitalisation of at least $100 million or more, it is unlikely
that the company will be looked at by brokers and analysts for some time into the future. This
means that the early investment opportunity for investors into smaller companies is often missed.
As history shows us, micro and smaller companies can often prove to be outstanding performers
in the market on the way up, if they are identified early.
The Bourse Factor Research has been widely recognised as a valuable additional service to ourlisted clients and the research is often utilised by financial journalists as a reference source for
understanding the company and its position in the market. Research is a vital part of a suite of
products Bourse Communications provides to listed companies on the ASX looking for leadinginvestor relations services.
As part of our research process we have three of Australias most respected financial services
executives in the Research and Analytical Team at Bourse Communications.
Brent Mitchell, Senior Research AnalystBrent Mitchell has a record of success in the identification, analysis and selection of equities over
an extensive period in both funds management and sharebroking environments. He is backed by
excellent analytical, modeling and reporting skills from over 25 years experience in leading research
roles in a range of highly respected companies, both locally and internationally. Brent regularly
appears on the ABCs Lateline Business program, offering his insights on a range of listed
companies.
James Dunn, Senior Research AnalystJames Dunn has a wealth of experience in financial journalism and commentary. He has consulted
as a freelance business journalist to leading broadcast productions and publications around
Australia, as well as having a lifetime of experience in personal investment, the financial sector and
business media.
Glenn Woolley, Senior Research AnalystGlenn Woolley has had over 25 years experience in the financial services sector. He has held a
number of leading roles in funds and equities management, as well as having extensive experience
